No official lockdown / shelter in place orders here (Northern Virginia) yet... The County has closed all parks & athletic courts; but trails are only "closed to groups" - so I take that to mean I can still ride them solo (including when they pass through a now-closed park) or with my sig-o. Or, I could ride in the roads (which have of course, dramatically fewer cars at all times now!) I've been out on several rides during March (13 rides, 200 miles so far) as weather allows. This afternoon looks promising for another ride...
My employer went to 100% telework early last week; that's working out fine for me, but others new to teleworking (or without an issued laptop) were struggling with a few things. I find my workday is far quieter -- a lot of my daily work would arise from walk-up desk traffic at the office; those folks aren't reaching out to me nearly as much (via email or chat) now that we're all remote, it seems.
Finding new means of some food delivery -- The grocery-delivery services are strained. I've tried every day this week to secure a delivery window up to 8 days forward, with no success. I'll probably venture into a grocery store this weekend. I did get a nice delivery of two varieties of locally-made kimchi and homemade pickles (from a vendor I used to frequent at farmer's market here), and will have some farm eggs and beef chili arranged for Sunday from another farmer's market vendor. Will see how careful I can be with my toilet paper situation, as I have yet to be able to find any for purchase -- but things aren't desperate - just before the wave of panic-buying set in here, I grabbed a big bundle as normal shopping; think I have 12 rolls remaining
How I've grown to envy the Europeans who long ago embraced incorporating the bidet as a standard home plumbing fixture! What a sensible, improved alternative when you really dwell on the realities of the T.P. method
{And who'd have thought those last 2 sentences would be ones I'd ever write, on a biking forum?!}
